Successes and failures
“I know how to live in need and I also know – Paul. (Phil. 4:12)
In every social community there are numerous individuals already preoccupied with their particular successes, anxiously awaiting the opportunity for recognition. They are precisely the ones who are least able to maintain distinguished in the world, disastrously ruining the opportunities for elevation their life grants them.
Almost always knows who have learnt to endure poverty are the ones who know how to manage their material resources more efficiently.
For this reason accumulated treasures in the hands of those who have not worked for it is often the cause of crime, division and perturbation.
Honest, hard-working parents will form a mentality of personal effort in affective cooperation in their children whereas selfish and uncaring parents will Foster uselessness and laziness in theirs.
Paul of Tarsus, in his message to the Philippian church, refers to the precious imperative on the path relating to equilibrium, demonstrating the needs of the disciple as to the value of poverty and wealth, of scarcity and abundance.
Success and failure are to cups filled with diverse elements that may nonetheless be adapted to the same sublime purpose. Human ignorance, however, finds the liquor not exhilaration in the first, and the bile of desperation in the second. Therein lies a profound mistake, because the wise person will extract the divine content from happiness and pain, abundance or scarcity.
